Mr. Speaker. the Federation of Hungarian Former Political Prisoners has worked long and hard to speed up immigration procedures for Hungarian political fugitives who are waiting in European refugee camps with the desire to come to the United States. Fifteen years ago. our great Nation expedited the admission of approximately 40.000 Hungarian refugees after they fled their native country following the 1956 Russian military action. Today thousands of Hungarians must wait many. many months in Europe for final action that would allow them to come to America. During the waiting period. they experience food and clothing shortages and overcrowded living quarters.
